Touratech Rear Shock Absorber for BMW R1100GS from 1995 Type Level1

Product information "Touratech Rear Shock Absorber for BMW R1100GS from 1995 Type Level1"

This shock absorber is the right choice for the BMW R1100GS during normal touring operations. The shock absorber type offers a wide adjustment range and high reserves for the demands of motorcycle travel. The separation piston design and finely adjustable damping allow for a more precise adjustment and balance than is possible with the series components of motorcycle manufacturers. The spring preload can be adjusted with a setting tool to accommodate the large travel luggage. The damping adjustment of this Level1 shock absorber allows for the necessary influence on the rebound and compression stages to meet your individual comfort requirements at the shock absorber.


Important points at a glance:
=> The shock absorber is configured and ready to ride based on our experiences for the BMW R1100GS.
=> Parameters include: vehicle weight / linkage of the shock absorber / structural conditions / test rides.
=> The shock absorber mentioned here is designed for a rider weight of up to 100kg including travel luggage.
=> For all suspension solutions, the rear and front areas of the motorcycle should be adjusted.
=> The suitable component for the front of the BMW R1100GS is:
=> Touratech Suspension shock absorber *front* for BMW R1100GS type *Level1* 01-040-5875-0
=> When replacing only one component, optimal riding behavior is not achieved.



The equipment installed here with its adjustment options is sufficient if the suspension only needs to be adjusted for different load conditions rarely.

Features of the Touratech Suspension Level1 shock absorber:
=> The shock absorber housing is made of aluminum.
*** This results in the lowest possible weight.
=> Special, low-friction seals are installed.
*** This results in very low wear and a long lifespan of the shock absorber.
=> Stable stainless steel bushings are installed in the shock absorber eye for the mounting screws.
*** This ensures a stable, play-free fit of the mounting screw even under the highest loads.
=> All components are designed for intensive use with heavy touring motorcycles.
=> The damping settings were developed based on the experiences and requirements of Touratech.
*** The basis is many travel kilometers and the experiences from the deployments of the Touratech Race Team.
=> Separation piston design. This allows the damping fluids oil and nitrogen to act separately.
*** Finer response of the shock absorber.
*** High, precise damping performance even at very high damping frequencies (bad roads, tracks).
*** Better cooling of the shock absorber.
*** Minimal restrictions on the installation position of the shock absorber in the motorcycle.
=> QR code on the shock absorber with individual shock absorber information.
*** This allows for easy retrieval of shock-specific information by scanning with a smartphone.
*** Always accessible information on the basic setting of the shock absorber. Reset possible in case of incorrect settings.



If you have installed a larger tank than the original tank on your motorcycle or made modifications for additional luggage storage on your motorcycle, adjustments are possible. The shock absorber will then be individually adjusted to your needs by us with a spring of higher spring rate. Please use our suspension check form and send us the completed form.
